IBM has upgraded itsz/VSE mainframe operating systemto
further support ecommerce and widening Linux use.
The z/VSE V4.2 system is designed to support growing mainframe
applications and deliver stronger investment protection, said
IBM.
Klaus Goebel, development executive project manager for z/VSE,
said, "Many customers are beginning to put new Linux applications
on the same IBM System z9 mainframe that also runs their production
z/VSE applications.
"This integrated approach is designed to offer the best of
Linux, and the potential for low total cost of ownership of the
System z9 mainframe."
IBM's mainframe virtualisation system z/VM is playing a central
role in these developments, said Goebel.
